Tucked behind private gates on a quiet hillside in Studio City, Laurel Terrace is the kind of place that makes you exhale the moment you walk in. Soaring 15-foot ceilings, walls of French doors, and an easy, open flow give this three-bedroom, three-bath designer home a rare sense of spaciousness --- the kind you feel in your bones after a long day of exploring LA.
The living spaces are warm and considered, with a gas fireplace in the TV lounge that makes evenings in feel just as good as evenings out. The kitchen is stocked and ready for everything from a lazy breakfast to a full group dinner, and in-unit laundry means you can actually pack light.
Each bedroom has its own private en-suite bath with a rain shower --- a small luxury that goes a long way when you're traveling with others. The third bedroom sits on the lower level with its own separate entrance, making it a natural fit for guests who want a little extra privacy or independence.
Outside, the space is made for lingering. Gather around the fire pit or the outdoor fireplace, fire up the built-in BBQ, and settle in at the al fresco dining table for six. Whether it's a slow morning with coffee or a late night under the stars, the outdoor areas give the home a resort quality that's hard to find at this price point in LA.
When you're ready to venture out, you're in one of the best-positioned pockets of the city. Studio City sits right at the foot of the Santa Monica Mountains, putting Fryman Canyon Trail --- one of LA's most beloved urban hikes --- practically at your doorstep. Erewhon, the legendary LA health food market, is just minutes away, as are the shops, restaurants, and nightlife of West Hollywood and the luxury corridor of Beverly Hills. You're close to everything without feeling like you're in the middle of it.
A few things worth knowing before you book: Laurel Terrace is a two-story home with stairs from the street to the front door and is not suitable for guests with mobility limitations. Noise-sensitive neighbors mean outdoor gatherings should stay relaxed in volume, especially in the evenings. Parking accommodates up to two cars --- one driveway spot plus street parking. Two closets on the property are locked and reserved for owner use.

There is no place quite like LA. It's what people envision when dreaming about California. The entertainment industry has thrived in Hollywood for hundreds of years, calling people from all over the world. Surf lines the western coast of the city in areas like Venice, providing an area for locals and visitors alike to explore legendary beaches. Each of the 400+ neighborhoods in Los Angeles has its voice and story----meaning there's something in it for everybody. Where do you see yourself?
